You can set up a batch workflow task to allow a user or station to queue the next task to another user or station. Taskmaster Web allows many combinations of users and stations to open a batch and queue the next task to another user or station.
You can define the users and stations that can open and process a batch through a task. Setting up queuing is optional. You must set up the Store field on a prior task that is performed by the target user or station, so it is available for use by a subsequent task. For example, if the goal is for the user who scans batches to verify all of the batches that they scanned, then set up Store User ID on the scan task and Queue by User on the verify task. Each time a task runs that is configured to Store user or station information, any previously stored user or station information for the batch is overwritten.
The Workflow tab provides you with the ability to change these settings. Changing the settings does not affect batches that are already queued.
The task's Queue by field lets you identify the combination of user ID and station ID that can open a batch that is queued for this task. The options for the Queue by field are:
Ensure that the option you choose for the Store field provides the information that is required by the task that occurs later in the workflow. The options for the Store field are:
Task | Queue By | Store |
---|---|---|
Task 1 Scan | None | User ID |
Task 2 Background (PageID, Recognition) | None | None |
Task 3 Verify | User | None |
Task 4 Export | None | None |
Task | Queue By | Store |
---|---|---|
Task 1 Scan | None | None |
Task 2 Profiler (PageID, Recognition) | None | None |
Task 3 Verify1 | None | User ID |
Task 4 Verify2 | Other User | None |
Task 5 Export | None | None |
